Chickpeas or Garbanzo beans are a member of the legume family; they are a type of pulse. They are very tasty whether in a salad or a winter stew.

However, they are full of protein, and provide an excellent source of folate (vitamin B9), iron, phosphorus and zinc. They are also a good source of vitamins B1-3, B5, B6, magnesium and potassium.
